Russia-Ukraine War: NATO’s New Missile Strategy Risks Nuclear Conflict While Europe Celebrates Christmas

The Hindu  

Published : Nov 29, 2024 13:55 IST - 6 MINS READ A surreal atmosphere currently loiters over Europe: a strange disconnect between festive preparations and the content of TV news bulletins and posts on social media. The day after Biden’s pronouncement, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, eager to burnish Britain’s reputation as the US’ most stalwart ally, declared he would not rule out allowing Ukraine to use UK-made Anglo-French Storm Shadow cruise missiles for strikes inside Russia. “There are no red lines in France’s support for Ukraine.” First ATACMS attack inside Russia The following day, November 19, Russia reported that Ukraine had deployed six ATACMS ballistic missiles in an overnight attack on a “facility” in the Bryansk region, just across Ukraine’s northern border with Russia. If escalation might seem in line with the “logic” of the West’s no-holds-barred support for Ukraine, in place since Russia’s 2022 invasion, there is a decidedly wanton and capricious quality about the decisions being taken by a lame duck US President in his dwindling days of office. While the addition of several thousand North Korean troops to Russia’s fighting capability is being cited as reason enough for pushing the planet to the brink of World War III, the general belief—in the US and elsewhere—is that the Biden administration is deliberately escalating its proxy war in Ukraine ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration in January.
